English

I believe that good communication is one of the keys to great patient outcomes and satisfaction. I realize that each patient is different and has different needs and expectations. Before proceeding with any procedure, I strive to educate each patient and answer all questions. I hope to exceed expectations, but try not to promise something that cannot be delivered. Honesty and integrity are keys to my practice philosophy. Secondary Specialties: Hand and Reconstructive Surgery
